  1. Shreshth Dhuria –

    I had mixed feelings about Hisila. The humor was great, but the characters felt a bit too extreme. Overall, a decent read.

  2. Subham Kumar Nahak –

    A darkly funny and unsettling book. Butler’s prose is excellent, and the themes resonated with me. Highly recommended!

  3. Aditya Nigam –

    Hisila’s biting social commentary is both hilarious and disturbing. A must-read for anyone who enjoys satire.

  4. Saksham Kumar Srivastava –

    Hisila is a clever and well-written satire. Some of the themes made me uncomfortable, but overall a worthwhile read.

  5. Suraj Kumar –

    I enjoyed the witty writing, but the main character was hard to root for. An interesting, if slightly off-putting, look at the art world.

  6. Renuka Singh –

    The book kept me engaged, although I didn’t particularly like any of the characters. Still, a compelling and thought-provoking novel.

  7. Simarpreet Singh –

    Hisila is a unique read! Butler’s satire is sharp, though I found it a bit too cynical at times. Still, it’s a thought-provoking exploration of ambition.

  8. Samyak Daheshwar Gajbhiye –

    Hisila is a brilliant and unsettling novel. It’s a dark and witty exploration of modern life. I loved it!

  9. Subhankar Baral –

    I was expecting more from this book, the story felt incomplete, but the writing style was interesting. A mixed bag for me.

  10. Aryan Dua –

    Butler’s writing is impressive, but the story itself didn’t quite grab me. I wanted to connect more with the characters.

  11. Anubhav Sharma –

    This book is definitely not for everyone, but I appreciated the dark humor and sharp observations about contemporary society.
